Really hard to feel sorry for the 590,000 rubes who paid $100 for a Trump phone they'll never get. Did they just ignore all his previous scams and failed enterprises? If it makes them feel any better, that lost $100 is peanuts compared to the real hit Trump is taking to their pockets.

Wow. The hatred. This judge is to be commended for coming down hard on this racist couple and their accomplices.
A Georgia couple who terrorized a Black family at a child's birthday party with Confederate flags, racial slurs, guns, and death threats were sentenced for a hate crime. Joe Torres got 20 years; Kyla Norton got 15.

It will be decades before we fully reckon with the damage being done on a daily basis. Trump is having his revenge, and we seem utterly incapable of comprehending this level of evil malevolence.
“The United States is being murdered, and it’s an inside job. Every department, every branch, every bureau and function of the federal government is being fatally corrupted or altogether dismantled or disabled.”
Prime Minister of Spain Pedro Sánchez: “The Government of Spain will not applaud those who set the world on fire just because they show up with a bucket.” 🍿
How refreshing to pause scrolling for a moment of true wonderment and awe.

Have we considered that Trump's address to the nation last night might have been a malignant April Fool's joke? Like maybe he has a sense of humor and that's what it looks like?? It's the only thing that makes sense...
You can see pretty clearly when the President decided to reassure a worried nation.

This is a five-alarm fire. He means it. He will stop at nothing to prevent the blue wave that is coming in November.
Trump calls on Republicans to "take over the voting" in 15 states, presumably those run by Democrats, an escalation in his effort to assert control over American elections. @reidepstein.bsky.social @nytnickc.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/02/02/u...
Christians protesting injustice, oppression, nationalism, and the use of our sacred scriptures to justify evil isn’t “causing division.” Christians justifying injustice, oppression, nationalism, and evil through the use of our sacred scriptures is what is causing division.
Not a “paid protester.” Not an Antifa battalion commander. Not “bussed in from out of state.” A registered nurse at the VA who broke no laws and cared about humanity. Murdered by the Trump Administration.
No one can be watching this Davos speech and reach any conclusion but that the President of the United States is mentally disturbed and that something is deeply wrong with him. This is both embarrassing and extremely dangerous.
Happy Winnie-the-Pooh Day to all who celebrate! For his special day, here's a sample of the bear's wisdom: "It is more fun to talk with someone who doesn't use long, difficult words but rather short, easy words like "What about lunch?" "A hug is always the right size." Bless you, Pooh.

Excellent job explaining this crisis, from Sen. Chris Murphy. 💙. I hope everyone takes some time to listen and share this.
I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland. Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.
He could have shot her tire instead of her face.
It's not a hoax if you work this hard to cover it up. Duh.
Fun fact: Dick Cheney and I share the same high school alma mater. Twenty years apart, so no, we didn't hang out.
Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 85th day out of the last 97. 12 days of work in over 3 months. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.
Dang. If only I'd had the foresight to invest in inflatable costumes two months ago. Opportunity missed!
Why are we bailing out Argentina? An extra $20 billion on top of the first $20 billion?? Can someone explain how this benefits American taxpayers?
substack.com/@ymbfkm/note... -ABC fired Terry Moran for calling Stephen Miller a world class hater. -MSNBC fired Matthew Dowd for saying that hateful thoughts lead to hateful words, which leads to hateful actions. -While @ FOX, Brian Kilmeade calls for exterminating the homeless. He still has a job!
Sunset behind Mount Moran in Grand Teton National Park. Your moment of zen.

If you’re an immigrant with legal status who’s committed 0 crimes you can be sent to a torture prison where you’ll be raped and dehumanized. If you’re old pals with Trump and ran a pedophile ring you get sent to a cushy minimum security prison despite being ineligible because you’re a sex offender.
